EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Flora of Colonial India: Poem with Ukshi, Getonia Floribunda, and Trumpet Vine" 2.. This chromolithograph, titled "Poem with floral border of ukshi, Getonia floribunda, and trumpet vine, Campsis radicans. (Getonia mutans, Bignonia radicans)", is a stunning botanical illustration from the "Flowers from an Indian Garden: Second Series: Hope" published by Breidenbach & Co, Dusseldorf, in the 1860s. The illustration was created under the meticulous observation and artistic direction of Emily Eden, an English aristocratic writer, novelist, and traveler who accompanied her brother George in India from 1836 to 1842. The illustration showcases an exquisite arrangement of three distinct flowering plants: the ukshi (Getonia floribunda), the trumpet vine (Campsis radicans), and the coral tree or Indian laburnum (Getonia mutans, syn. Bignonia radicans). The intricate floral border encircling the image is adorned with delicate ukshi blossoms, adding an elegant touch to the overall design. Ukshi, also known as the Indian coral tree, is a native to India and Southeast Asia. Its vibrant, tubular flowers bloom in clusters and come in various shades of pink, red, and white. The trumpet vine, an Old World climbing plant, displays trumpet-shaped, vibrant orange and red flowers that attract hummingbirds and other pollinators. The coral tree, with its striking, pendulous, coral-red flowers, is a common sight in Indian gardens and is renowned for its beauty and resilience. Emily Eden's botanical illustrations, including this one, offer a glimpse into the rich and diverse flora of colonial India, capturing the essence of the natural world and the artistic sensibilities of the time.
